About this stay
Staying at the Abbaye de Maizières means stepping back into history, with its origins as a 12th-century Cistercian Abbey. Located right in the historical centre of Beaune, it offers a unique base for exploring the town. Rooms are accessed via a spiral staircase in the tower, adding to the charm and sense of stepping into another era. Each room is individually decorated with antique furniture, creating a traditional and comfortable atmosphere. Mornings begin with breakfast served in the atmospheric vaulted stone cellar, a memorable start to any day. The hotel's central location places guests just steps from the Notre-Dame Basilica and a short walk from the Hospices de Beaune, with the added benefit of being able to arrange wine tours to the nearby Côte de Beaune vineyards.

Our take
The Abbaye de Maizières is the Beaune address I would choose for a stay with real history: a former 12th-century Cistercian abbey in the historic centre, with antique furniture, breakfast in a vaulted stone cellar and wine tours that can be arranged. A guest score of 8.6 across about 450 reviews is strong. I would book it for atmosphere, not for a pool or a spa.
- ✓Book a wine tour through the hotel to explore the Côte de Beaune vineyards with local expertise.
- ✓Take time to enjoy breakfast in the vaulted stone cellar; it's a highlight of the stay.
- ✓Explore the immediate surroundings on foot, with the Notre-Dame Basilica and Hospices de Beaune just steps away.
